- SENATOR VANCE HEARD FROM. ' '
Moved by a strange infatuation,
some of .our Southern editors, Dem
: ocrats at that, have used tbeir blades
"against Senator Vance because, for
sooth, the Senator has seen fit to
criticise the President's action nicer
tain matters and has even had the
hardihood to say that he places his
allegiance to the Democratic party
above that of fealty to the President
Senator Vance was looked up to as
the patron saint of Democracy in
this country long before the Presi
dent was known outside of Erie
county, New York ; and how, after1
'so many and glorious victories have
been won under his leadership of the
Democratic, hosts, itis ungrateful,
and to' the last degree unfair, to at
tempt to discount him in the affec
Hions of his people. It can't be done,
and those who attempt it are only
"gnawing a file." So confident were
ive in this belief that we had not con
ceived of a contfngericy . even in
which theSenator might' be required
to take notice in any public manner
"of the misrepresentations indulged
in by newspaper writers. Hence our
ter, bearing his signature, relative to
these things. It was drawn out by
the publication of an alleged inter
view with a correspondent of the St.
Louis Globe-Democrat which, ac
cording to our Senator, "never took
place." In it he takes occasion to
state the points of difference between
the President and himself. There is
no such thing as general discord and
want of harmony between, the Presi
dent and Senator Vance, as so many
would have us believe.- On the con
trary, in the event of President
Cleveland's renomination; "-. which
seems probable, no abler advocate of
his re-election than Senator. Vance
win. taite tne neid. we. quote now
from the Senator's letter:
i I have- favored the double stand
ard of gold and silveri without dis
crimination for or against either,
.which the President does not.
I have favored the payment of the
public debt in the legal coin of the
United States according to the plain
jyords printed on the face of the se
ufkes, and the President does not.
I ha,ve favored , that "honest civil
service reform" whjeh the Democrat
ic convention at Chicago, which
nominated'Mr. Cleveland, demand
ed, and which the" .Democrats of the"
United States thought they were to
get when they voted for him ; that
reform which consisted in ejecting
Republican officials from the offices
they had prostituted and abused,
but the President does not .
. I have favored th"e application of
therprinciples of "home rule" to the
" District of Columbia, the only, dis
franchised portion of the American
people and a deference to their
wishes in' the appointment of their
local officials, but the President does
not. .' . ; . '
In these important matters, and
gome others not so important, I have
the misfortune to agree with the
Democratic party rather than with
- the President. But, so far as I am
aware,: there has been no want of
harmony , in the personal 'relations
between him and me.; I have said
frothing of. him any way unbecom
ing the language "which a Senator
should use toward the President of
the United States. If he cannot bear,
frith out offense, the cordial criticisms
, of those friends who differ with him,
he is unworthy of his. great office.
Should J, for the sake of the patron
age he has .to-bestow,.-, suppress or.
foregQmyhonQstconyictions,I would
prove unworthy of mine. At all
events, I would desjre Mr, Cleveland
to know that I have .made jio secret
of my opinions concerning 'V.his pol
icy at aji,y lime... I do not.abuse him
in. the clotiklp?omIand:prai6e him in
public for the sake.pf. the ."meagre
scraps which fall to Demecrats un-

mentioned to the President whoxve
assent as he would have done in
any other small affair. General
Tuttle, , Commander of the Grand
Army of the Republic for Iowa he
who so recently was sat down upon
by Sherman and others of his com
rades for deliberately planning to in
sult the President when the latter
Governor to protest against such ac
tion, whereupon the Governor of
Iowa sends word I to the President
that all proper endeavors would be us
ed to prevent any such returning of
battle flags captured by Iowa troops.
When the news reached Columbus,
Ohio's Governor yclept "little For
aker" fired a telegram at the Presi
dent loaded with "I most earnestly
protest against the action.'! Ex-Union
v8oldiers of Ohio deprecated in
strong language the proposed return
of .Confederate flags. Meantime at
the reception given in New York to
Commander-in-Chief Fairchild , of
the G. A. R., that redoubtable hero,
in denouncing the action of the Pres
ident in sanctioning the return of the
"Rebel" battie flags, almost tore his
shirt,' and said : "May God palsy
the.hand that wrote the order; may
God palsy the brain that conceived
it; may God palsy the tongue that
directed it." After denunciatory res
olutions were passed and the cere
monies of the occasion had ended,
the infuriate General left, announc
ing his purpose to deliver the fiercest
kind of a. speech on the subject at
New Haven the next day. The Presi
dent on due notice simply withdrew
his sanction and requested that no
further steps be taken except to "ex
amine and inventory these flags and
adopt proper measures for their pre
servation," deciding that any direc
rection as to the final disposition of
them should originate with Congress.
The peace of the Union is again se
cure, but another opportunity was
inadvertently; made for the Fair
childs and Forakers of the North to
get off their venom and spleen. It

TUB NEW REVENUE COLLECTOR.
We see that the President has ap
pointed Kerr: Craige,- Esq., to be col
lector of the new 5th district, and
Messrs. Dowd and Boyd return to
private life.
Mr. Craige lives in Salisbury and
will establish his headquarters there.
His appointment is generally ap
proved and from our acquaintance
with hitn as an ante-bellum Chapel
Hill student we are prepared to
vouch for his eminentqualifications.
His deliberate declinature of a can
didacy for Congress two years ago,
when an election was assured, is a
trump card in Kerr Craige's hand to
win the people's favor, "and in any
position he will discharge his duty
faithfully. He has entered into bond
for the collectorship with the follow
ing as his bondsmen : Stephen W.
Cole, M. L. Holmes, R. J. Holmes,
J. S. Cubbens and S. H. Wiley.
A Decision In Regard to North CaroUaa
Bonds.
From the News and Courier,
The State of North Carolina has
till now declined to tax its people to
pay interest on $10,000 of bonds is
sued in 1869 by the first Legislature
chosen under the Constitution fram
ed by the Convention which General
Canby assembled in Raleigh Febru
ary 14, 1868. The decision of Judge
Bond, just made at Raleigh, holds
thnt the agents of the State must col
lect taxes to the amount of one
eighth of 1 per cent of all property
in the State to meet the interest on
the bonds in question, as required
bythe law authorizing their issue.
It has been, held hitherto that
the State, under the Federal Consti
tution, could not be sued by citizens
of other States. This difficulty has
been evaded by Morton, Bliss & Co.,
of New York, by getting a citizen of
North Carolina to bring suit in their
interest. It is now in order to com
pel the State to levy, a tax. What if
it does not?
Our meek-arid- -Christian contem
porary :; the. Tribune is respectfully
asked to take into consideration the
fact that the "rebels" have never ask
ed for the return of their flags, etc.
For some years past they have been
voluntarily . sending back flags,
swords and other trophies to the
survivors of the Union r organiza
tions from which they captured them.
In several instances these fraternal
overtures have been responded to in
kind.- But the "rebels" havenotbnly
not asked to have the flags restored
by the Government, but they have
not even desired it or thought about
it They care nothing for such
things. Their thoughts are occupied
with .otljcr matters. The Tribune,
however, is doing its best to make the
worjd, , believe - that the. war is still
raging in this latitude, and the Trib
une might easily be in better busi
ness, too. New York Star.
A Daring Train Robbery on the Southern
FacUta Railway. ..
- .- ' '-" awaaa .t r"'j " " "V'f p ''? "' .
x Houston, June 18. Themost dar
ing train robbery that ever occurred
in Texas ,wa3 perpetrated at 1:30
o'clock this morning a short distance
this side i of fechulenburg, on. the
Southern; Pacific Railway. As the
train drew up at the station two men
with drawn revolvers mounted 1 the
engine, covered the engineer with
their Weapons, and commanded and
compelled him to pull the train out
to the open prarie, a few hundred
yards to .the east, where a fire was
burning, around which stood eight
or ten men armed with Winchester
rifles. , The two robbers on the en
gine stood guard over the man at
the throttle while the others went
through the mail, express and pas
senger cars. Neatly all the passen
gers were asleep and did hot know
what was going on until they were
aroused by the robbers. The first
man tackled by the robbers was W.
Newberger, of New YorK, whom they
struck on the head with a revolver.
They secured from him $75 in cash
and several diamonds and a gold
watch valued at about $150. L. E.
Neymeyer, of Cincinnati, was reliev
ed of $35. R. L. Armistead, of ftew
York, gave up $20 ; he had a large
amount of money with him but it
was hidden in the sleeping car. - A
gentleman from Mexico, whose name
could not be learned, lost $400. All
of the passengers lost what valuables
they had and it is difficult to form
an estimate of the amount of money
and jewelry secured. It is reckoned,
however, at about $5,000.
Wells, Fargo & Co.'s express car
was also gone through, but the
amount of money taken from it can
not be ascertained. No mail route
agent was on the train, but the
through mail pouches in the express
car were all cut open and their
contents appropriated.
The total amount secured hy the
thieves ia put down at $8,000 or $10,-
000: but when careful revision of
the matter is made the figures may
be changed. There is no doubt that
considerable booty was secured and
the gang made off with it successful
ly.' . ,
The whole country is aroused and
in arms. Several parties have gone
in search of the robbers.
Railroad Rates for the Normal.
From the Charlotte Chronicle. .
Reduced railroad rates have been
secured for parlies desiring to at
tend any of the normal schools in
the State. Maj. Finger, the State Su
perintendent of Public Instruction,
has notified the county superintend
ents that those desiring to avail
themselves of these rates must hold
a certificate signed by the Slate Su
perintendent and countersigned by
a County Superintendent of Public
Instruction. The only persons who
are entitled to certificates are teach
ers, those preparing to teach, and
such persons as go by invitation as
instructors or lecturers.
A Threatened Organisation of Negro Farm
Hands. (
Augusta, Ga., June 13. A special
to the Chronicle from Laurens, S. C,
reports that the negroes near there
have formed a secret organization, to
demand a dollar a day for farm
work, and threaten murder if neces
sary to accomplish their ends.. They
are organized under the guise of the
Knights olLabor. The main agita
tor, a man named Hoover, who was
recently shot near Warren, Ga., is
organizery,. The whites have organ
ized a cavalry company for protec
tion. Sommervlll Quaking Again.
Charleston, June 19. A special
to the News and Courieri reports a
startling shock of earthquake at
Summerville at 10:37 this doming,
accompanied by the most prolong
ed roaring heard since October 22nd
of last year. The shock caused a
sensible vibration of houses and fur
niture, but was not sufficient to do
any injury or cause alarm. The
roar was faintly heard at Charleston.
At Summerville the roar seemed to
come from the southwest.
The Wilmington Star suggests
that the State press should erect a
monument to the memory of the
late P. M. Hale, Esq.' The sugges
tion is an excellent one, and if the
State Press Association would take
hold of it and give it shape it would
do something to justify its existence.
If the matter were, pressed upon the
Eeople a good deal of money could
